Jeremiah 34
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth under his dominion, and all the peoples, fought against Jerusalem and against all the cities thereof, saying,
Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda, ko se je babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar, vsa njegova vojska, vsa zemeljska kraljestva njegovega gospostva in vse ljudstvo borilo zoper [prestolnico] Jeruzalem in zoper vsa njena mesta, rekoč:
2 Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
»Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Pojdi in govori Judovemu kralju Sedekíju in mu povej: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, to mesto bom izročil v roko babilonskega kralja in ta ga bo požgal z ognjem.
3 And thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt certainly be taken, and given into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak with thy mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
Ti ne boš pobegnil iz njegove roke, temveč boš zagotovo zajet in izročen v njegovo roko, in tvoje oči bodo gledale oči babilonskega kralja in ta bo govoril s teboj od ust do ust in šel boš v Babilon.‹«
4 Only, hear the word of Jehovah, O Zedekiah king of Judah. Thus saith Jehovah as to thee: Thou shalt not die by the sword;
Vendar poslušaj besedo od Gospoda, oh Judov kralj Sedekíja: »Tako govori Gospod o tebi: ›Ne boš umrl pod mečem,
5 thou shalt die in peace, and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings that were before thee, so shall they burn for thee; and they will lament for thee, Ah, lord! for I have spoken the word, saith Jehovah.
temveč boš umrl v miru, in s sežigi [dišav] tvojim očetom, prejšnjim kraljem, ki so bili pred teboj; tako bodo sežgali dišave zate; in oni te bodo objokovali, rekoč: ›Ah, gospod!‹ Kajti jaz sem proglasil besedo, ‹ govori Gospod.«
6 And the prophet Jeremiah spoke all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah, in Jerusalem.
Potem je prerok Jeremija vse te besede govoril Judovemu kralju Sedekíju v Jeruzalemu,
7 And the king of Babylon's army fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah; for these were amongst the cities of Judah, the fenced cities that were left.
ko se je vojska babilonskega kralja borila zoper Jeruzalem in zoper vsa Judova mesta, ki so ostala, zoper Lahíš in zoper Azéko, kajti ta obrambna mesta so preostala od Judovih mest.
8 The word that came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, after that king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people that were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them:
To je beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda, potem ko je kralj Sedekíja sklenil zavezo z vsem ljudstvom, ki je bilo v Jeruzalemu, da jim razglasi svobodo,
9 that every man should let his bondman, and every man his bondmaid, the Hebrew and the Hebrewess, go free, that none should exact service of them, [that is, ] of a Jew his brother.
da naj bi vsak človek pustil svojega sluga in vsak človek svojo deklo, ki je Hebrejec ali Hebrejka, oditi prosto, da naj ne bi bil nihče postrežen od njih, torej od svojega brata Juda.
10 And all the princes and all the people that had entered into the covenant obeyed, every man letting his bondman and every man his bondmaid go free, that none should exact service of them any more: they obeyed, and let [them] go.
Torej ko so vsi princi in vse ljudstvo, ki je vstopilo v zavezo, slišalo, da naj bi vsak pustil svojega sluga in vsakdo svojo deklo oditi prosto, da naj si nihče izmed njih ne pusti več streč od njih, potem so ubogali in jim pustili oditi.
11 But afterwards they turned, and caused the bondmen and the bondmaids whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for bondmen and for bondmaids.
Toda potem so se obrnili nazaj in veleli služabnikom in pomočnicam, ki so jih pustili oditi proste, da se vrnejo in jih privedli v podjarmljenje za služabnike in za pomočnice.
12 And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Zato je Gospodova beseda prišla k Jeremiju od Gospoda, rekoč:
13 Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
»Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Zavezo sem sklenil z vašimi očeti na dan, ko sem jih izpeljal iz egiptovske dežele, iz hiše sužnosti, rekoč:
14 At the end of seven years ye shall let go every man his brother, a Hebrew, who hath sold himself unto thee; when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee. But your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
›Ob koncu sedmih let pustite oditi vsak mož svojega brata Hebrejca, ki ti je bil prodan; in ko ti je služil šest let, ga boš pustil od sebe oditi prostega.‹ Toda vaši očetje mi niso prisluhnili niti nagnili svojega ušesa.
15 And you, ye had this day turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
In sedaj ste bili obrnjeni in storili pravilno v mojem pogledu v razglašanju svobode vsak človek svojemu sosedu; in pred menoj ste sklenili zavezo v hiši, ki je imenovana z mojim imenom.
16 but ye have turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his bondman, and every man his bondmaid, whom ye had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and ye have brought them into subjection, to be unto you for bondmen and for bondmaids.
Toda obrnili ste se in oskrunili moje ime in veleli vsak človek svojemu služabniku in vsak mož svoji pomočnici, ki jih ste na njihovo zadovoljstvo spustili na svobodo, da se vrnejo in jih privedli v podjarmljenje, da so vam za služabnike in pomočnice.‹
17 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith Jehovah, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will give you over to be driven hither and thither among all the kingdoms of the earth.
Zato tako govori Gospod: ›Niste mi prisluhnili v razglašanju svobode, vsak človek svojemu bratu in vsak človek svojemu sosedu. Glejte, razglašam vam svobodo, ‹ govori Gospod, ›meču, kužni bolezni in lakoti, in storil vam bom, da boste odstranjeni v vsa kraljestva zemlje.
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, — the calf which they cut in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
In jaz bom dal ljudi, ki so prestopali mojo zavezo, ki niso izpolnjevali besed zaveze, ki so jo sklenili pred menoj, ko so tele preklali na polovico in šli med njegovima deloma,
19 — the princes of Judah and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf;
Judove prince in jeruzalemske prince, evnuhe in duhovnike in vse ljudstvo dežele, ki so šli med deloma teleta;
20 them will I give into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of them that seek their life; and their carcases shall be food for the fowl of the heavens and for the beasts of the earth.
jaz jih bom celo izročil v roko njihovih sovražnikov in v roko tistih, ki jim strežejo po življenju. Njihova trupla bodo za hrano perjadi neba in zemeljskim živalim.
21 And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which are gone up from you.
Judovega kralja Sedekíja in njegove prince bom izročil v roko njihovih sovražnikov in v roko tistih, ki jim strežejo po življenju in v roko kralja babilonske vojske, ki so šli gor od vas.
22 Behold, I command, saith Jehovah, and I will cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
Glej, zapovedal bom, ‹ govori Gospod ›in jim povzročil, da se vrnejo k temu mestu; in bojevali se bodo zoper njega, ga zavzeli in ga požgali z ognjem in jaz bom Judova mesta naredil opustošenje brez prebivalca.‹«
